International touring artist Michael Fitzsimmons presents his Drums of the World concerts featuring rare instruments from Switzerland called Hang – reminiscent of the steel drums of Trinidad.
Incorporating the Hang with over 30 years' experience as a composer and performer, Michael has spellbound audiences with the beautiful, other worldly sounds of these unique and intriguing instruments.
Dancing Man Music's multicultural concerts showcase an exciting variety of drums from Cuba, West Africa, Central and South America; flutes from Brazil, China and Native America; pan pipes from Bolivia; and kalimbas from South Africa. Michael weaves variety into his performances, as multilayered songs unfold before your eyes and between your ears.
“Drums of the World” concerts for schools, libraries, hospitals, and places of worship typically run 45 minutes with plenty of audience participation. Concerts are often combined with workshop programs.
The Nebraska Arts Council (402-595-2122) can help fund these programs in Nebraska.
Fees: Contact Michael to create an event suited to your needs.
